Episode Notes

Victor Mentry, one of the world's richest people, disappeared from public life over ten years ago and nobody has managed to get even a snapshot of him since. In spite of that, he's legendary for his business prowess and his political reach. His endless river of dark money and nearly non-existent campaign regulations have allowed him to form a deep network of powerful government figures loyal to him. Who is Victory Mentry and what is Article Five, his ultimate political aim?

S1E2 - The Squeeze

Sun, 19 May 2024 15:03:26 -0000

Episode Notes

Uber-rich and reclusive Victor Mentry is paralyzed by disease and doesn’t have much time left. His lifelong dream of a constitutional convention called by the states under Article Five is coming together. His last wish is to use the convention to shrink the federal government and transform the U.S. into a Libertarian utopia. Unable to act directly, he is enabled by his long time lawyer and assistant Gunter Hale, former US Senator Ozzie Hightower, and sleazy political consultant Kevin Fortuna. Mentry's unending river of dark money can buy all the lobbyists, operatives, and corrupt politicians needed to make his dream into a reality, but the state of Nevada is his only hope of living to see it. Rookie Nevada Assemblywoman Deena Justin, a target of Kevin Fortuna's intrigues in the past, is a staunch opponent of political corruption. This time she's in elected office and on the front lines of the convention battle. She just doesn't know it yet.
